"Everything" Search - the search box on Gutman Library's home page

When you need to research marketing, an excellent first step is to check our catalog. Searching "Everything" means searching for any source type (articles, books, ebooks, videos, conference proceedings, and more) across many of our 225+ subscription databases at once. You cannot ask our catalog a question, so brainstorm for keywords first (see the concept map on this guide's "Form Your Topic" page) then consider trying a Boolean logic search with AND, OR, or NOT.

Keywords to try: branding, marketing, advertising, consumer

Boolean Operator Search Example How does it work?
AND fashion AND "digital marketing"

AND narrows a search by retrieving sources with all your terms

Putting terms in quotation marks retrieves sources with those keywords next to each other

OR consumer OR customer OR broadens a search by finding sources with either term
NOT women NOT teenagers NOT narrows a search by excluding sources with an unwanted term
